Jump Starter Required

[RforRobert]

My ML sits in an unpowered shed and is rarely used, consequently it usualyy has a flat battery.
I have just ordered a solar powered trickle charger to connect up to it but i would also like a jump starter pack since i have 5 vehicles with batteries of varying battery states.
Can i have some recommendations for a jump starter please.

We have a Supercheap one in the shop which gets regular use. Had it for 3-4 years and it replaced another which also lasted for years.

Get the biggest one - absolutely essential to start a cold diesel and when not in use keep it plugged in and charging.

We've tried the make your own route with a trolley, battery, cables and a charger. More expensive and not as reliable or convenient as the jump packs.

I'm looking at the itech1000A. It should be able to cope.
Thanks

1000A is barely enough. The one we have in the shop is 1900A and needs to be fully charged to start a cold diesel or a V8. Admittedly our winter mornings are probably a bit cooler than yours, but the extra grunt really makes a difference.

That iTech unit is just designed for lighter loads such as lighting & fridges not as a starter battery.

For many less Australian Pesos, you can get a purpose built compact starter designed for what you're after.

The little solar chargers are a good idea. You want to keep the battery topped up or it will die prematurely.

I've opted for the NOCO GB70 with 2000A peak current. It should be able to crank the crap out of anything i use it on.
